[ I've modified the distribution & added both new gTLD WG list
& ALAC list - when you reply, you might get a bounce from the
new gTLD list if you're not in the WG but staff will do the magic to
unlock you message ]<br>
<br>
Just a few notes:<br>
- the Preliminary Issues Report is long (147 pages) but needs to be
read thoroughly.<br>
- the draft ALAC Statement addresses only those points which Carlton
and I felt were important to address. If you see anything else in
the Preliminary Issues Report that requires our attention, please
flag it as soon as possible so we can add it.<br>
- I know that some in our community are saying: "no more new gTLDs /
ban on new gTLD rounds", or "no more new gTLDs until we see a
demonstration that the first round has served the public interest".
<br>
Please note that the current issues report says that the default is
that the program *will continue with a next round*. Having spent
time on the gNSO council participating in the discussions, it is
clear that there is a very strong pressure from Contracted Parties
and some parts of the Non-Contracted parties (some of whom might be
interested in being part of the next application round) that *want*
a next round to take place *as soon as possible*. Unless you are
ready to enter a trench war with the GNSO, I would not recommend
that we ask for an outright indefinite ban on new gTLDs -- because
since the working group will be a GNSO working group, we'll all end
up being completely ignored from day 1. Carlton and I have therefore
taken the stance that if there is going to be another round, *all*
the issues identified in the issues report, and other issues we have
pointed out, need to be both studied and resolved. Even that is
going to be a very hard point to defend, but it is absolutely worth
defending - if/when the working group gets under way, please take
part in the WG.<br>
- If the At-Large Community would like next round of new gTLDs
promoting applicants from developing economies, the ALAC might need
to support a next round sooner rather than later.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<br>
